Thank you Walmart for sponsoring this post on a topic I'm passionate about! I became car-seat obsessed when I was pregnant with Harper. I had worked on a few news stories related to car seat safety at my day job as a public relations specialist at a children's hospital, and conversing with certified car seat techs made me realize that car seats ...

My All-Time Favorite & Must-Have Baby Products
Thank you Walmart for sponsoring this post! Though my children are now 6 and almost 4, I get asked quite a bit about favorite baby products.

Transitioning Your Toddler from a Highchair to a Booster Chair
When Harper was an infant, I ordered the Boon Flair highchair (see my review here) and we used that for her entire baby/toddlerhood. Lincoln started eating solids at 7 months old and Harper was still using the Boon (without the tray) at this time because it was a great height for her to eat at our kitchen island. So, we purchased an IKEA highchair ...
Favorite Amazon Purchases
One of my favorite bloggers Katey recently shared her favorite amazon purchases and I thought that was a really fun post idea!

Lincoln Grey at 20 Months
It’s been way too long since I shared an update about our sweet boy who is now an active, always-on-the-go toddler. He's just a few days out from being 20 months old and I can't quite believe he will be two this fall. Lincoln is busy, active and (sometimes) destructive -- all of my fellow boy moms tell me it’s par for the course (and that dumping ...

Laundry Hacks + How to Get Out Tough Stains
You know the saying "boys get really messy?" I'm not sure I believed that was true. Maybe I even rolled my eyes a few times when people said it. Then, my son started eating solids and he's the messiest eater ever, to the point that he enjoys spreading food around in his hair. When he gets up from his high chair, even when wearing a bib, his food ...
Chicco BravoFor2 Stroller Review (The Stroller You’ve All Been Asking About) + A Trip to the Zoo
When I shared some videos on Instastories & Snapchat recently of some outings with the kids, I got so many direct messages asking about our new stroller--- the Chicco BravoFor2. Now, before we get into this review, this post is in partnership with Chicco, but as always, this is my full and honest review of this stroller and how it works for us ...
